Um. I would never have kept an email from an unknown company like shopgourmetcooking.com, as I already get enough spam. Is my Bodoki shipped or not? A heads-up about your distributor would have been nice and practical.

Just got mine yesterday and I am very happy with the project and the final results. I just saw your last comment about the gourmet cooking doing the shipping for you and was wondering what those shipping emails are for until just now. I was trying to wrap my head around what else I have ordered and who that company was. Either way I am glad to see the final product and my wife is very pleased with it as well.

Just got mine today. I am not happy with their Chinese supplier. The finish is horrible. The board seems to have some sort of finish on it. But the finish is missing in some areas showing raw wood, in other areas the finish is caked, beaded, or chipped off. Hope it's food grade. And the edges of the board are not straight, as if the wood swelled. I must admit I expected better quality.

I had the same scare when I got the email from them, but on top of that, I was apparently added to their email list because they kept sending me emails everyday... I've unsubscribed,but it was annoying. I got the board today... it is beautiful, but it had a funny smell when I opened it so the first thing I had to do was wash it.

The partner you are using for shipping is worth an update. I am so glad I checked this. That Gourmet Cooking company has a bad reputation for customer service. I had a long discussion with my wife about this and was actually planning to refuse the shipment after checking to see who was sending me a shipment I didn't order.

We partnered with a company called Gourmet Cooking that had reached out to us to help us ship and was already set up for shipping. They're just handling the shipping for us and they've done a tremendous job. Sorry for any confusion the confirmation emails caused, they did that to make sure everyone knew the units were on the way, and in case anyone has shipping problems. They got everything shipped out now so you should be getting your Bodoki right away!

Yes, you really should send out another update to warn people who this item is coming from. I get an email with a subject line of KAVI Greatlife TV Order and I almost permanently deleted it as SPAM. I did check the tracking number, without clicking on the link in the email, and saw it was valid. Checking the web showed a very shady looking web site for cooking stuff which didn't help me understand. My husband said he didn't ordered anything and I knew I didn't so I called them. The rep told me it was a Bodoki cutting board so then I realized it was from the Kickstarter.

You definitely need to tell people who the shipment is coming from or you may start to see a lot of refused or cancelled orders.

Curious about this as well... I got a notification from a shopgourmetcooking.com that I have a package coming to be via fedex, but I haven't ordered anything from that site... wondering if this is it???
